The aquarium is an homage to our founders, Art and Inge Rewinkel, who loved the ocean.
The tank is 500 gallons and weighs several tons.
The "fish closet" produces more than 150 gallons of sea water every week!
The sand alone weighs more than 400 pounds!
The sea coral are "farmed" from and to other fish tanks in Colorado!
